I found my copy from when I was in high school...in 1984! Highlighted and notes in the margins for the quiz that came later. Ah memories of AP English.

Just started it again. One of my favorite books...

Inspired by the trailer to re-read it. Need to be informed if I'm going to complain

A good a time as any to revisit.

"He's so dumb, he doesn't know he's alive."

Finished the book and now I am stricken with a grief that cannot be consoled. But I am going to attempt to cover it by reading some Kerouac this evening.

Only a chapter to go, this book has a magic to it, it is written so beautifully it's no surprise to me that it is touted at the supreme American novel. It radiates. Without a doubt a modern classic.

Começando a ler para literature II :B

You are now the guru of The Great Gatsby ~~Thank you GetGlue Nation!!! (cha~ching)

Just read it for the second time. Even better reading as an adult. Incredible.

"There are only the pursued, the pursuing, the busy, and the tired."

I'm looking forward to see it at cinema. No doubts Leo will be Great as Jay Gatsby.

Finished it earlier! Loved it.

"In his blue gardens men and girls came and went like moths among the whisperings and the champagne and the stars."

So far this book is pretty good. Excited about reading it.

Read the first 30 pages on the train home. Beautiful.

A little complicating for a teenager in the 21st century, of course. But once it was explained, I love the layers of rich literature and hidden symbolism!! The emotion is deep and complicating, creating a textured storyline. This tragic episode left me speechless for answers.

Just starting ch7. I'm now 60% through according to my kindle. :D

Ch4. Getting interesting. I can see why so many people love it.

Ch2. Back to this now I've finished the other books.

Kinda sleepy but I need to read this!!!

Juniors starting this, now.

En lo que me quedo dormida...a leer!!!

Reading the last 6 pages right now. I don't want to finish it. It's so perfect. Didn't expect what happened in the ending.

Read it for English. Don't see what all the hype is about...

i have to write a ten-page continuation of this for class.. i'm on page three, wish me luck

«So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.»

Read in Cabo (had seen the original film several times) and now really interested in this year's re-make. Wouldn't be at all considering there's no WAY Leo can come close to Reford, but Carey Mulligan is sure to be stunning - she may out perform Mia as Daisy.

This book is everything that's wrong with rich people. Do they pass it around like a guide for jerks?

Can't wait for the movie!
